How we handle bath resealing in Stanhope
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and missing sealant behind the taps, in baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Questions from Stanhope
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Why it’s worth resealing in Stanhope
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stanhope. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Work done at your home or business

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What we’re called out for in Stanhope
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether they match the colour on site
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
